Building a new starter or welcome pack

New starter packs follow your hiring schedule. A consistent range and straightforward reordering help keep each pack ready for the next person joining.

Choose items that support the first week: a laptop bag, drinkware, a notebook or the uniform pieces needed for the role.

Start with the first week

Start with what the person will need in their first few days, then choose suitable products and branding.

• Role and setting: office, hybrid, outdoor and customer-facing staff need different things.
• Whether uniform pieces belong in the pack, or get issued separately.
• Sizing, and how you will collect it before the start date.
• How often new people start, since that sets your reorder rhythm.
• Who signs off a change to the pack range.

Keeping the pack consistent

A welcome pack works best as a small fixed range rather than a catalogue of choices. Fewer, better items are easier to reorder, easier to budget for and easier to keep in stock.

If people start at a predictable rate, it's usually worth holding a small buffer rather than placing a fresh order for every single hire.

Keeping packs ready to order

Review stock and agree suitable replacements when products change. Keep the pack range focused so it remains straightforward to order and assemble.

We help set a practical range, check sizing and stock ahead of start dates, and manage repeat orders.

• Collect sizes before the start date.
• Review new additions against the purpose of the pack.
• Approve replacement products for brand and quality.
• Set reorder points around your hiring schedule.
